All I know is I was about done with the game before it even tipped off. I still can't figure out how the game started 20 minutes after the player intros.
You must not be a Guard. I fucking HATE people handchecking me. As a Referee, it's CLEARLY gaining an advantage. Move your goddamn feet. A good defender doesn't need his hands to stay in front of a dribbler. Plain and simple.
The All-Star Game is a piece of shit. It's one of those things that I can't be sure why people do enjoy it. I only watched it at all because of Damian being in all those events.
I watched the entire thing and enjoyed it. Positive threads don't sell on this board anymore, so instead we get TalkHard starting a thread about the AS game, and how much he hated it. Gee, thanks for sharing that, Shooter.
I watched part of it and enjoyed what I saw alley oops break away dunks and other theatrics made the game fun regardless of score. If we want the game to mean something then have home court advantage on the line.
This. I had it DVR'd, and I got 2.5 hours recorded. The game tipped off 54 (!) minutes into the recording, which ended with 7 minutes left in the 3rd. Yep, because of the 45 minutes of rap concert at the beginning of the game, and the additional 20 minutes worth in the middle, I missed almost the entire second half. Good job, NBA.
Sorry if my opinion of the All-Star game ruined your day. In the future I will try to post only things that give you a thrill up your leg.
Unlike most in here, I actually like watching all-star weekend. I had heard that Irving had put on a bit of a show, so I wanted to see what he did. I enjoy watching people do things that I wouldn't be capable of in a thousand years and appreciating their athletic prowess, even if it's not a real game.
